About this property

Peaceful, extremely clean Treehouse cottage 10 min. from National Park entrance

Are you looking for the perfect getaway? Picture yourself in a cozy Appalachian style log cabin. The soft breeze blowing through the trees while you're swinging on the porch swing sipping iced tea. The views from the porch and windows are of evergreens, hardwoods and the enchanting Smoky Mountains. You have all the amenities you need for a relaxing stay. You have a jacuzzi, fully equipped kitchen, 2 bedrooms, bath w/shower, washer & dryer, central heat & air and Weber charcoal grill. You can even nap in the hammock nestled in the trees. The 'tree house' cabin has earned its name because it feels like you are literally in a treehouse when you are rocking or swinging on the covered porch. You are surrounded by nature at its finest. Come for a visit and see why so many of our guests return time and time again.

clean, cute and peaceful
We loved our time at the treehouse. It was very clean and cozy and we didn’t need a thing! Loved the horse decor and the indoor hot tub. My family of four including our two kids ages 8 and 10 had plenty of space. We walked around the neighborhood a bit too every night and all the neighbors are so friendly. We got to pet horses and see baby cows! Just a beautiful place to stay and the nearby town is very cute. The owner called to check in on us our first night but we didn’t need anything tho it was kind of her to call. Thank you so much!

Quiet and Peaceful
Second time we have stayed here. Very quiet and peaceful just a short distance from the Great Smoky park entrance. The owner had the cabin decorated with fall items giving it a home type feeling. Very clean, two bedrooms, fireplace, and whirlpool tub making it very comfortable. Five star rating from a senior couple that has stayed in a lot of places.

About the host

Hosted by Melody Gilbertson

Host profile image
I'm a country 'girl' who grew up on a dairy farm in northwest Wisconsin. I have lived here in Townsend for 34 years now. I live on the 8 1/2 acres where the Treehouse cabin is located. I also have a log cabin which I love.

Why they chose this property

I am blessed to own one of the most beautiful tracts of land in Blount County. It is also very close to the Smoky Mtn. Natl. Park. I can ride my horse right into the Smokies. There are three trailheads under 3 miles from the Treehouse cabin. Guests love to hike in the Park, or even just go for walks here in our valley which is called Dry Valley.
